Summer is here! While you’re taking a well-deserved break, it’s also the perfect opportunity to brush up on teaching strategies to help you improve your practice. If you’re looking for a place to start your professional learning, we’ve got the perfect solution.

Created in 2014, the BloomBoard Marketplace as an easy way for educators to discover personalized, high-quality learning resources from a single destination. Over the course of the past several months, more than 100,000 educators have been taking an active role in their professional growth through the beta version of our Marketplace. Today, we’re excited to announce that, for a limited time only, the BloomBoard Marketplace is open to all educators.

How it Works:

Follow these three steps to build and share knowledge with educators across the country:

Explore.Search and filter tools make finding the professional resources you’re looking for easy. In the upper left corner of the homepage, you can search by Teacher Skills or Student Skills. Click one of these options to filter by resource type, subject area, grade level, and more.

Learn. The Marketplace contains a vast array of resources including courses, eBooks, articles, and videos. Select the best resources for you based on ratings and reviews from peers and expert curators. After discovering a new skill or strategy, there’s only one thing left to do: give it a shot!

Share.When you find an interesting or valuable resource, leave a review about how it helped you in the classroom, then pass it along. Use the share button to send any useful resources to a fellow educator, a group of peers, or through your social networks.
